Oatmeal cream pie free#
If you are making a gluten free oatmeal cream pie, be sure to use certified gluten free oats, which have been processed on dedicated equipment not contaminated with wheat ingredients. Since I wanted this recipe to replicate the delicate, soft Little Debbie cookie, quick oats are used for a finer texture. Typically baked goods, like Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, use old fashioned rolled oats for a hearty, rustic texture. While regular baked goods can become tougher with over-mixing, gluten free baked goods benefit from it because it relaxes and hydrates the starches. When substituting gluten free flour in the recipe, it may need a few minutes longer to bake. Luckily, this recipe is completely gluten free adaptable! Unfortunately Little Debbie does not offer a gluten free version of their famous snack cakes. Beat in shortening on high until very light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.Remove bowl from heat and beat in remaining powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract.If you have an instant read or candy thermometer, it should read 140☏. Whisk until the egg white mixture is hot to the touch.Place the bowl of a small amount of gently simmering water, being careful to not touch the bottom of the bowl directly to the water.

Use a heatproof bowl to whisk together egg white with 1/2 cup powdered sugar.Shortening – Use white vegetable shortening instead of butter flavored.Vanilla extract – Clear extract is recommended for pure white filling, but not necessary.Heavy cream – Half and half or milk may be substituted, but you may lose some of the fluffiness.

The egg white is mixed with powdered sugar and heated over gently simmering water to safely pasteurize it. Flour – For gluten free version, I recommend using Cup 4 Cup gluten free flour.Quick Cooking Oats – Use quick cooking instead of old fashioned rolled oats for best texture.The cake bakes in minutes and with no frosting to deal with, you can be slicing into a dream come true in no time!
